PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR

they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old

refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

WARNING

Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:

■ Take off the doors.

■ Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb

inside.

Using the Controls

For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the

factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the

controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the Freezer

Control should both be set to the “mid-settings.”

IMPORTANT:

■ Your product will not cool when the REFRIGERATOR Control is set

to OFF.

■ The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment

temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment

temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the

temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting make

the temperature colder.

■ Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you add

food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may

spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a higher

(colder) than recommended setting will not cool the compartments any

faster.

Adjusting Controls

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It

is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. The

settings indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal

household refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk

or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

■ Turn the control right (clockwise) to make the compartment colder.

■ Turn the control left (counterclockwise) to make it less cold.

■ To turn the cooling system off, turn the Refrigerator Control

counterclockwise until it reaches the OFF position.

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, use the

settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at least 24 hours

between adjustments.

Crisper Humidity Control (on some models)

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper.

Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and HIGH.

LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.

HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.

Important information to know about disposal of

refrigerants:

Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local

regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,

EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with

established procedures.
